It all depends on my mood which is influenced by the tides caused by the moon and stars which God controls.
Now, there are times when I have this fiery urge to give an argument 180 degree's from what I believe just to stand in anthers shoes and allow a different point of view to flourish. Other times, I am bogged down by the negative influences and I feel compelled to make light of the situation by making a joke. Yes, I have times when I'm driven to WIN ... but my favorite is to shut-up and let the other person make a donkey out of themselves; it's a very effective face-to-face technique that has a 89% success rate of winning (giggle).

No, I'm not like that, although I kind of know what you're trying to say.
I know some people that although are very intelligent, they do NOT know everything that one can know about the world. If they don't know a certain fact/word to be true, they say it doesn't exist!

well if winning means the conversation will" be" an intelligent one:",and one party is maybe irrational,or incapable of such conversation,then,yes I want an intelligent conversation,therefore,I want to win...if we are disscusing the bible,this it should be to spread the gospel or give better understanding to others who are seeking or to gain,because we are all suppose to be seeking info God,the only winner in biblical disscusion is God he loves us to talk about him,

When discussing the Bible I want to be always correct. In being correct I am not in it for the win, I am in it to tell the truth without error.

I'm open to everything. Prove me wrong beyond a shadow of a doubt and I stand corrected.

No. I am not afraid to admit that I was wrong if I am convinced enough by the other person.
